:arrow: = Working on it, :?: = wtf/unconfirmed, :idea: = fixed next release

Known issues

:?: Starting an HLDS or listenserver with the -num_edicts flag may lead to crashes on some maps.
- 1500 *maybe* a safe range...

Minor
:idea: Bloodshrine Sorcs not finding qualifying players proper (failing to divide by #players)
:idea: Bloodshrine secret gold bags self-deleting
:arrow: Teleport entrance to mummy chamber on Deraliasewers is too close to ground
- maybe - no new report on this, and not had time to check
:?: Edana Mayor's quest still screwy (maybe)
:?: Votepvp dysfunctional (maybe, keep forgetting to check it out)
:idea: Great Lava Boars occasionally burning targets no where near them
:idea: Bloodshrine not in disconnected map list

Aesthetic
:?: Changing map while a status icon is active causes said status icon to become permanently "stuck"
:?: Texture scrambling issues when playing for a period of time
:?: Some players report additive render weapons not rendering so in first person, or otherwise rendering incorrectly (Felewyn Shard, Hoarfrost Blade, GIB, etc.)
:?: Disconnecting while dead results in invisible body and armor on reconnect.
:?: Using changelevel instead of votemap or admin_map may cause various texture issues.
:arrow: Some p_models vanishing into floor
:?: Lack of level up sfx for Polearms (for some players)

Ancient/Perpetual
Known Ancient bugs:
- No Free Edict Errors (ED_Alloc:no free edicts), usually the result of overloading the server in one way or another. You can *try* hosting with the -num_edicts flag, however, this may prevent some maps from loading. We're constantly working to mitigate this bug.
- All entities invisible bug (type kill in console to cure).
- Lights/sprites not going away / sticking to other objects (Sticky client-side effects)
- Occasionally a weapon/spell will stop doing damage until it is unequipped then re-equipped.
- Can't use charge attack in laggy conditions. (Work around: use +special or +uber)
- Sitting animation bugs (sometimes saves to character for awhile)
- All water sometimes goes white (texture stretch bug, restart)
- Typing issues in chat. Especially with European keyboards.
- Various Health/mana indicator madness (see also yonder)
- Small sack holds stuff it should not.
- Ticket Bank freaks if you have more than one of the ticket or item you are trying to trade
--> Galat chest does not have this issue.
- Double attack bug, most prominant with xbows
- All tomahawks appear as fire tomahawks in third person
- Heavy/Light Crossbow jamming when firing
- You cannot use NPC/GM/menus/chests when inventory is full (not a bug, insomuch a necessary limitation, at the moment.)

Also Not liable to go away soon:
- Jumping from server to server without closing |MSC screws with FN functionality
(solution: ALWAYS close MSC before joining or creating a new server!)
- Some monsters still capable of some acts while frozen (jumping, etc.)
- Orion Bow jamming sometimes, (I've no idea how to fix this without dropping the whole charged weapon concept.)
- Can't push monsters while under the effect of leadfoot potion

Resolved from JUN2011a:
- Couple of items in Phlame's chest cost cash to remove
- Phlame's Blacksmith Chest not distributing gold
- Teleporter madness
- Various exploits
- Various chests/bank issues (including reports when inventory full)

If you change map while you have an ice shield going, the timer logo thing will be stuck at full in the top left corner. If you do another ice shield, it'll make a new one below the old one, so 2 on screen.

goes away when ya die tho

Bludgeons can jump up to unclipped areas and get stuck for a moment.
Blarg, surprised that never came up in testing... Meh, at least you can still kill them and get around it. I never understood why the sky brush was that high though, and I really shoulda fixed it while I was there.

Added - should be easy enough to fix. It's kinda amazing how much the client actually keeps between map changes though - part of what causes the texture bugs.

Patch is pretty unstable of what i have seen sofar

Tundra:pretty often crashed (p_models3.mdl error,random hl.exe error,kick due to player amount)

after that we went to bloodshrine and i couldn't even get in, before the char select i get the random hl.exe error

On NON-FN i didn't had these problems

Meh... There's a major bugger up with the Bloodshrine Sorcs declaring, "I would reward you, but I find your performance as a warrior, wanting." as result of not dividing averages. Fixed next patch.

Sucks, even I woulda qualified that last run, and it woulda made up for the 10 times I died. >_>

Found a mapping issue, not sure if it's considered a bug or not. Didn't know where to put it, so I just decided to post it here.

The images show a little rectangle map error (dunno what it's called) in Bloodshrine. The area is where the beetles come out near the beginning, I think.

Not a fucking clue.

Been more stable than usual for me (completed two 8 player games of Bloodshrine, with both players and monsters constantly spamming near every spell imaginable), but one thing that might be affecting free resources, is the changes to the liblist.gam - as we increased the default client edicts to 1500. It should actually make the game *more* stable, when connecting to servers using the num_edict flag. You can try removing the line: commandargs "-num_edicts 1500" from it and see if it helps you at all.

Only reason non-FN might be more stable than an FN server, though, is fewer players.

I've also yet to get a texture scramble bug this month, which is odd - wonder if something changed on the engine updates side. I did notice they fixed the Steam service report bug on the HLDS. They've been tweaking a lot of stuff on that side of things lately - which always scares me - but, occasionally, they actually fix things.

Got the texture scramble bug several times today, still seems to occur more often if people spam sprays.

Drat... Guess I've just been lucky.

Someone was spamming sprays everywhere, but they weren't coming out right - dunno if that's what he was trying to show me - or if it's my client's spray cache.

Reminds me... Keep meaning to work Triad and other MSC lore symbols into the default spray list.

Not really a bug to do with gameplay at all, but today I updated my ATI Radeon graphics card driver to 11.10 so I could play BF3. I was having an issue where I couldn't even launch the game, and now that I -have- updated, MS:C now has the problem. When I go to launch MS:C, it shows the background fine, then it freezes for a second, my graphics card cuts out, turns black, then the screen turns white and tells me to "Wait for the program to respond" or "Close the program." Just thought this might be good to know, for future reference.

In phlames boss fight, if u died, u cant reach the boss room again since the box blocked the way to fire orges after the boss fight starts.

I recommend taking that box out altogether, it's pointless (what is it blocking anyways?)

Think it's there to force you to fight the skeles and blacksmith, before moving onto the ogres.

No idea where it's getting set off twice in order to re-appear though. Maybe flip it to a breakable - doesn't matter if you target a breakable twice, as unlike a func_wall_toggle, it ain't there to be triggered no more. (Come to think of it - why is it a func_wall_toggle?)

Wait... This is your map... Why are you asking questions? ;)

I'm sure there is already a func_breakable wall above the boxes which do that

Indeed, but you're the one who added that sliding box 8) (I think your original intention was to stop players going around the reaver portal, which I moved in front of the gate anyway :oldlol:)

I did? :\

(Me notices entity name follows my usual convention...)

I did.

Now WTF did I do that? :\

It seems to be tied to the reaver spawn somehow, but... Maybe I was thinking it was too sploity to drag the reavers back to that area - but neglected to undo it when I added the teleporter+gate fix. ...or... Something... :oops:

Doesn't that door crack open once the ogres are dead though? Meh...

Actually, the door breaks when the ogres get close to it i think... i usually let the fire ones use the flamethrower ability once, to break the door. It's either a npc approach or damage that breaks the door, this is my guess.

oh. i didn't notice that the door have to break by the orges and this cause there have no way to the boss room.

EDIT: lodagond-4 seems glitched again.After slain all the fragments of maldora, the door to boss room stucks and i can hear the sound of door opening.
EDIT 2nd: the door opens after i reconnect. How is this happening?

I have runned lodagond 4 or 5 times on this patch and have no crash/glitch issues at all.
Maybe bad luck?

Lost in my mind.
I think it was the amount of people. There was a lot of people on when we ran it.
